Easy Blackberry Pie

This is not only the easiest pie I have ever made it is also one of the best tasting!

My husband loved it  so I will be making this one again. Love having fresh blackberries from the garden.

I used a packaged pie crust just to keep things simple but you can use any basic pie crust recipe.

You just need five more ingredients:  4 to 5 cups fresh (or frozen) blackberries, 1/2 cup white sugar , 1/2 cup all =purpose flour, 2 tablespoons milk and 1/4 cup white sugar.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees

Reserve 1/2 cup of the blackberries for later. Mix the rest of the blackberries with the sugar and flour.

Spoon this mixture into an unbaked pie shell. Top with the reserved berries on top of the sweetened berries. Cover with the top crust.  (I added a little unsalted butter on top of the berries before topping with the crust.

Seal and crimp the edges. Cut vents in the top  Brush the top crust with the milk and sprinkle the sugar over the top.

Bake  in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes. The filling should be bubbly and the crust golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
